We bought two mesh tarps as a pergola shade, and after several years in the Colorado sun, the edges began to fray, so we bought two more this year. They are terrific! Can't beat the price for the quality and durability. My only disappointment is, since we double-layer them, it would be nice if the grommets were uniformly spaced, so we could run the hooks through both layers together. That's only a problem because they are double-layered for our purpose, though. Other than that, the tarps are ideal and a real bargain. Our handyman liked them and asked where we got them, so I referred him to Mytee.
